"Since I attached earSHIELD to my helmet, I have never taken it off again because I would miss it too much, both in winter and in summer."

Less wind noise & more cycling joy - enjoy the ride safely!
Less airflow around the ear without covering it: earSHIELD stays on the helmet, important sounds remain audible and glasses as well as in-ear headsets can still be used.
For everyday rides, tours and cool days
earSHIELD was developed for cyclists who want less distracting airflow around the ear without shielding the ear. The models sit on the helmet strap, remain lightweight and compact, and are designed for everyday rides as well as longer tours.
earSHIELD deflects airflow away from the ear and can noticeably reduce distracting wind noise while cycling. In winter, cold airflow around the ear is reduced; in summer, the ear remains free.
earSHIELD does not rest directly on the ear. Traffic, warning signals, conversations and other ambient sounds remain perceptible.
earSHIELD is attached to the bike helmet and is ready for every ride. It does not need to be searched for, put on or stored again before each ride.
Depending on the model, the weight starts at around 5 g per side. The compact shape reduces airflow around the ear without unnecessarily affecting helmet comfort.
earSHIELD 2 and earSHIELD Pro use a natural sheep wool outer material. The wool helps make airflow and turbulence around the ear more comfortable. earSHIELD Classic remains the proven original polyamide model.
The earSHIELD profile shape can be adjusted individually. This allows the shape to be adapted to the ear, helmet and personal preference without covering the ear.
earSHIELD fits many bike helmets and glasses and can be combined with many in-ear headphones and hearing aids. Less wind around the ear can also make voice prompts or conversations during a ride more comfortable.
Current recommendation
The new model combines a particularly lightweight design with natural sheep wool on the outside. It reduces airflow around the ear without closing the ear - suitable for many bike helmets and everyday rides.

This is how earSHIELD sits on a bike helmet: lightweight, compact and attached directly to the helmet strap in front of the ear.
Our mission
earSHIELD grew out of a simple problem: airflow around the ear can make cycling uncomfortable. That is why Nils Wiegmann develops and makes earSHIELD in Berlin as a lightweight wind deflector for bike helmets: close to the ear, attached directly to the helmet strap and designed so that traffic, warning signals and conversations remain perceptible.
